5 NEW TRAINERS YOU’LL BE WEARING ON REPEAT
By Lizzie Griffin, 8 July 2024
Nike P-6000 trainers in off white and red, £99.99
Get your kicks from a renewed classic. This silhouette borrows all the best elements from the Nike Pegasus 25 and 2006 to take the retro-running aesthetic to another level. It’s a super comfy pair that instantly makes you look put together, plus they keep serving new standout colours. And sorry, that signature swoosh? There’s so much to love.
The adidas shoe collection is our Roman Empire. The Sambas and Gazelles might be the hardest-working shoes in your collection, but it’s time to give them a day off. The Country OGs are a rerelease of a 70s runner and they were worn by Eddie Murphy in Beverly Hills Cop! Lace-up and channel the vintage vibes with this celebrated style.
New Balance 2002 trainers in sand, £119
As you know, New Balance has dominated the dad-shoe territory for years. They really had their moment with the 990 style that had ‘worn by supermodels in London and dads in Ohio’ written alongside their ads. Legendary. The icon status of this 2002 silhouette shows no signs of slowing down and the style echoes designs from Y2K. A staple in your rotation for years? We think so.
Converse Run Star trainers in red & pink, £80
Meet the new Run Star trainer you’ll be seeing all over your feeds! Complete with the signature Star Chevron logo, these low-top shoes feature CX foam (padded insoles that provide hours of comfort) and are a modern take on classic styles. Plus, they come in bright colours so you can walk around with serious confidence. Hello, aura points.
